So greentext is now considered as a new literary genre by the whole internet community (mostly beta fucks), however, you often see it executed with this childish "be me" style telling shitty anecdotes, but what if we try to make actual short stories with it?

ITT: write short stories making use of the greentext tecnique. Preferably not too long ones. If the result is any good, I'll collect all the greentexts and print the book myself

>A boy falls in love with a girl.
>Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with the girl’s phone number. >Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.
>But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day’s confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression.
>After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn’t exist in this universe at all. She is the girl’s alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC’s own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.
>Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. >While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of LOVE.

I invented greentexting. Or at least ">implying." I first arrived on 4chan in late 2006, so it must have started in early 2007. I realized there was no convenient way to objectify arguments or refer to situations in the third-person, most often in refutations pertaining to the Zelda timeline. So I began to use >implying to denote the connotations of what anons were saying to facilitate discourse. After long, my opponents began to reply in kind. And so the meme was born.

Alright, let's say you write the first work of veritable greentext literary fiction. It's great, no disputing that. Beautiful, timeless, and the writing is basically prose instilled with poesy. But, if you publish yourself, you'll out yourself to friends, family, and everyone else as being a person who comes to this site, the "neckbeard" type, and comes to it often enough to have mastered one of its hallmarks. Sure, your work will be widely read, but all the literary qts you meet will have already associated all the stereotypes of this site with you before you've even begun to court them.
What do? Publish and cement your legacy but commit social suicide? Or publish it anonymously on this board?

The other day I realized, asian girls aren't even particularly physically attractive- they just make an attempt at being feminine.

The concept of femininity is so foreign in the age of girl-power dykes that even the slightest semblance of it has guys fawning. I live in a major city and by FAR the most common interracial couple I see is wmaf, followed by assorted maf.

Look at the girl in OP pic. She has no eyebrows, a bad hairline, a squashed nose, and thin lips. She's not ugly, but she's hardly a supermodel. Here's what she has going for her:
- Good skin
- Smiling
- Making eye contact
- Wearing female clothes
- Normal haircut
- No visible tattoo or strange piercing
- Painted nails
- NOT FAT

These are things that literally any girl can do, and yet only asians do them regularly. What the fuck?

Sure.
>The Beginning: Skyward Sword, The Minish Cap, Four Swords, and Ocarina of Time.
>splits into the Adult Timeline and Child Timeline.
>Adult Timeline (Aka, the unaltered original continuum): Wind Waker, Phantom Hourglass, and Spirit Tracks
>Child Timeline (Aka, where Link returns to the past): Majora's Mask, Twilight Princess, Four Swords Adventures, A Link to the Past, Oracle of Seasons, Ages, Link's Awakening, Zelda 1, and Zelda II.

That is the true Zelda timeline, as concurred by /v/, /vr/, and /vg/ in 2011 before the Hyrule Historia ruined everything.
